ANSWER FOR BRAINLIEST The box plot below shows the number of students in the classes at Scott Middle School.

Identify the best measure of center and the best measure of variability of the data, and identify the values that correspond to those measures.

The best measure of center is the median.

The mean is 28.5.

The best measure of variability is the interquartile range.

The best measure of center is the mean.

The mean absolute deviation is 3.

The median is 26.

The best measure of variability is the mean absolute deviation.

The interquartile range is 5.

The best measure of center is the median.

The best measure of variability is the interquartile range.

The median is 26.

The interquartile range is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

A box plot displays 5 main values which are:

Minimum value

First Quartile (Q1)

Median

Third Quartile (Q3), and

Maximum Value

This, the measure of center that can be easily determined in a box plot is the MEDIAN, while the measure of variability can be determined by finding the difference between Q3 and Q1, which gives us the interquartile range (IQR).

Therefore, for the box plot given above:

✔️The best measure of center is the median (which is the value at the point where the vertical line divides the rectangular box).

✔️The median is 26

✔️The best measure of variability is the interquartile range

✔️IQR = 29 - 24 = 5
